Told you so. I'm not even going to bother booting this game anymore. I'm all against the "Monthly Active Users" metric. For all I know, the entire "passion for cars and racing" has been totally replaced by metrics and keeping the stakeholders happy. Which makes things worse because they are not even trying to milk this huge cow in a better way. So much wasted potential. For gamers, for enthusiasts, for stakeholders, for the brand itself.
Sales are what dictates the success of a game, not monthly active users.

Not sure why you bother posting in this forum then. I, for once, am quite happy with all cars in this update.

on a console where there is a paying option to play online, it is not 100% true though.

...so you'll be done posting about the game then?
 
Told you so.
The update would be pretty much the same as every other update over the last THREE YEARS? Wow! Nostradamus has nothing on your keen ability to see the future.

We are the stakeholders.

I don't know if you pay attention to the broader world of game development, or the business of games, but it's currently a BLOOD BATH for employment and absolute carnage when it comes to projects and games. Some HUGE budget games have barely survived a month.

Among this horrendous time in videogames, here we are THREE YEARS after launch. I'd say, based on the "Monthly Active Users" and the daily active users, Sony and the team are making the correct choices. They aren't perfect, but I keep coming back for more.

You're not going to bother booting the game? Ok, well, I'm busy trying to get my DR rating back up and I play almost daily. Who do you think will be missed more? People like me, or people like you?

I often wonder about comments like this. What wasted potential is there? A game that is enjoyed by millions of people will, by definition, be imperfect to each individual. I have my criticisms of this game, sure, we all do, but your comments stink of entitlement.

I will wager that while you complain about all that YOU have not gotten that YOU want, you probably haven't bother to explore the vast majority of the game. Where's your photos? Where's you liveries? How's your Sport Mode ranking? Did you even bother to finish the career? Or the licenses? Or the missions? Or the circuit experience?

And, again, I feel this needs repeating, the rest of us are still playing THREE YEARS post launch.
